All Things Spiritual-Blasphemy

Matthew 12:31 states that sin and blasphemy against the Holy Ghost are forgiven, but blasphemy against the Holy Ghost is considered a denial of the Holy Ghost's existence. The Holy Ghost moved upon creation, and God's spirit was involved in the creation of man. The divine plural word "Elohim" is a symbol of greatness or majesty in Hebrew language. The phrase "Let us make man in our image" can be interpreted as God conversing with angels or counseling with His own will. The divine plural-our- is a majestic or literary plural, and references to the Spirit of God, the Word of God, and the wisdom of God do not imply a plurality of persons. Old Testament theophanies can be seen as manifestations of the one omnipresent, omnipotent God. The attribution of human body parts to God is like decorative art, derived from the human form. Therefore, there must be an infilling of the Holy Ghost to allow God to have a body to do his will. Blasphemy of the Holy Ghost is discussed by recognizing that there is no separation between the Father, the Son, or the Holy Spirit.
